Congratulations Pat! Why are people so slow to congratulate the winners?
Joey, you have to let Pat win once in a while. 🙂 I’m sure it will be a different story in Krystals or any food where big money’s on the line.
Erik, your last three or four contests prove that you are way under-ranked. If I did the rankings you’d be 8th with a bullet!

Congrats Pat! And Rhonda is right, Erik is right up there with them. That’s impressive.

It should be noted that this is the second loss for Joey in 9 career rib contests (one loss to Humble Bob and now one to Pat).

Scratch that. I’m all kinds of wrong. He’s 9 and 3 in 12 rib eating contests. One loss to Bob and two to Pat. I also just realized that Joey recently surpassed $200,000 in career winnings. That’s freakin’ insane.

Wow Erik should be rated higher than Hall Hunt.
Hall is competing less and Erik more.Next Ranking could be a flip flop.
